Uninsured Motorist Coverage
When seeking money from your uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage, you are dealing with your own insurance provider. Many cases resemble third-party claims, because the first-party insurance provider tries to limit, delay or outright deny coverage to its insured. If you have been injured in an accident caused by an uninsured motorist, it is important to have an experienced personal injury lawyer on your side.
A hit-and-run accident will also draw upon your uninsured motorist coverage. Our attorneys can help you seek compensation from all available sources to make sure you have the resources you need to make it through this difficult time.
Underinsured Motorist Coverage
Underinsured motorist coverage is intended to make up the difference when the damages from an accident exceed the at-fault driver’s liability coverage. If you have suffered serious injuries in a car or truck accident, and the cost exceeds the coverage, we can help you draw upon your underinsured coverage so you can get the financial relief you need.

Common Challenges in Uninsured Motorist Claims
Insurance Company Tactics:
When dealing with uninsured or underinsured motorist claims, even your own insurance company may not be on your side. Insurance companies are businesses focused on minimizing their payouts to protect their bottom line. Common tactics they use include:
Limiting Coverage: They may attempt to interpret your policy in a way that reduces the amount they are required to pay. This could involve arguing that certain damages or injuries are not covered under your uninsured motorist policy.
Delaying Claims: Insurance companies might drag out the claims process in hopes that you’ll accept a lower settlement out of frustration or financial need. Delays can be especially harmful when you need funds quickly to cover medical bills, repair costs, or lost wages.
Denying Claims: In some cases, your insurer might deny your claim altogether, arguing that the accident wasn’t the fault of the uninsured driver or that your injuries aren’t as severe as you claim.
Our attorneys at Christiansen Trial Lawyers are well-versed in these tactics. We will aggressively negotiate with your insurer and, if necessary, take your case to court to ensure you receive the compensation you are rightfully owed.
Proving Liability:
Proving liability in an uninsured motorist claim can be particularly challenging, especially in cases involving hit-and-run accidents where the at-fault driver is unidentified. Challenges include:
Lack of Evidence: In a hit-and-run scenario, there may be limited evidence to prove who was responsible for the accident. Without clear evidence, your insurance company might argue that you were partially or fully at fault, reducing or denying your claim.
Disputed Facts: Even in cases where the other driver is identified, they may dispute their fault, complicating your claim. In such situations, having solid evidence is crucial to prove that the uninsured driver was indeed at fault.
Expert Testimony: To strengthen your case, our legal team may bring in accident reconstruction experts, medical professionals, and other specialists who can provide testimony that supports your claim. This evidence can be pivotal in proving liability and securing the compensation you deserve.
Our attorneys are skilled at gathering and presenting evidence, interviewing witnesses, and working with experts to build a strong case on your behalf. We’ll leave no stone unturned in proving that the uninsured driver was responsible for your injuries.
